  • People are not doing their damnedest. And it should fill you with anger.

    Some people are doing something, most are not. As evidenced by the fact that we're still well in the path towards catastrophe.

    Unfounded optimism can be toxic, because it gives you what you want (to not feel bad), and removes an emotional urgency towards action (feeling bad). It also blinds you to the reality of having to make sacrifices when needed, or more generally, being realistic with planning and decision-making.

  • it would also mean a massive blow to our wealth of information, which would be replaced by calculated manipulation of it, including spreading falsehoods and promoting whatever political agenda benefits him in particular.
